[net.music] Drumatix machine

I would like to get a drum synthesizer. One of the music stores
here (Portland, OR) quoted me a price of $395 for the Roland
Drumatix (TR-606?). I don't want to spend that much money.

Does anyone know where I can get a used one for around $200-$250?
(anywhere is fine, I can afford to wait)
Also, how does the Mattel Synsonics compare to the Drumatix? (I can
play drums, so I care about flexibility and sound more than
perfect rhythm)
Are there any other inexpensive drum machines available? (except for
PAIA. I built the Popular Electronics version and didn't like the
way it sounded at all; real flat and dead sounding)
